She's cleaning the pool or mas actual na sabihing nilalaro nya ang net sa tubig ng pool nang lumapit sa kanya ang isang kasambahay at ipinapaalam na pinapatawag siya ni Damon sa library.
She wonders what he does for living. He never seemed to leave the house for work, yet he was always buried in paperwork in the library. A week had passed since she moved in, and it felt as though her life revolved entirely around Damon's commands.
Bukas ay magsisimula na ang pasukan, at gaya ng sinabi ng lalaki ay isang public university ang What irked her the most was that she wasn't allowed to use a car. She will have to commute going back and forth to school.
Dire-diretso sya sa pagpasok sa nakaawang na pinto pagdating nya ng library. H is engrossed in a phone conversation. His back was to her, and he didn't notice her presence right away. She crossed her arms and sat down on the sofa, waiting for him to finish.
"Don't worry, Tito, I'll take care of it. Yes, yes," Damon said into the phone, his voice a blend of frustration and determination. He finally turned around, his expression shifting from surprise to irritation upon seeing Tamarah.
"What do you want this time?"
"I heard what you did to Monica. I don't tolerate violence in my manor. I want you to apologize to her."
Bigla ang pag-akyat ng dugo sa ulo nya sa sinabi nito. "No way! She doesn't deserve it. And that was a week ago__"
"Talk to me politely Tamarah. And what did I tell you? You will follow everything I will ask you to do."
"No! I will only follow you if it's the right thing to do. And saying sorry to that bitch isn't going to happen." Her voice trembled with rage. How dare he believe Monica over her without even asking what really happened?
"Are you disobeying me, Tamarah? You know there's a punishment for that."
Her jaw tightened as she glared at him. "I won't do it," she said firmly before standing up and storming towards the door.
"Then stay outside the house until I told you to get in. Under the heat Tamarah, and you are not allowed to ask anything from anyone, not even water." she shot him a glare bago tuluyang lumabas ng library.
Pinili nyang manatili sa may pool area, kahit mainit ay may lounge doon na pwede nya upuan. Nagbrowse na lamang sya ng kung ano sa cellphone nya pero pinakuha iyon ni Damon. He's really serious of punishing her.
She's been outside for almost fourhours, magtatakipsilim na din. Her throat feels dry and she's hungry. Walang kahit sinong nagtatangkang lumapit sa kanya para abutan sya kahit tubig. Maybe because they don't want to experience what that asshole did to Amy. Pero panaka-naka ay sinisilip sya ng mga kasambahay, karamihan ay nakikisimpatya, pero ang walang hiyang si Monica ay patawa-tawa.
Masamang masama ang loob nya pero hindi nya gagawin ang gusto nito, that bitch doesn't deserve her apology.
Its almost six pm nang labasin sya ni Damon. Bagong paligo ito, nag-iwas sya ng tingin nang salubungin nito ang mata nya. Ayaw niya itong kausapin, she might break down.
"You're too hard-headed, Tamarah. One simple apology—" His voice was a mix of frustration and a hint of something softer. Hindi sya umimik. Yumuko sya, her tears threatened to spill as her anger intensified. Naramdaman nya ang paglapit nito sa kanya. "Just say sorry or you'll spend the night here."
Nanatili syang nakayuko, ang sakit sakit na ng lalamunan nya sa pagpipigil ng iyak at galit. "Why is it so hard for you____" hinawakan sya nito sa balikat at para biglang nasindihan ang galit na pinipigilan nya. Without warning, she clawed at his face. Damon's eyes widened in shock as her nails cut through his skin, pero hindi sya tumigil sa pagsuntok at pagkalmot dito pero nasangga nito iyon, hinuli nito ang kamay nya.
